SWAN App Discontinued

If you use the SWAN Libraries App on your phone or tablet to borrow materials from Eisenhower, we’re sorry to let you know that the company that provides the app has unexpectedly disabled it. This means that your account status in the app will no longer be updated and you will not be able to use it to place holds or renew any titles. Thankfully, no other library services, databases, or digital platforms are affected.

We are working with SWAN to get a new app up and running in the new year. In the meantime, you can use the library catalog on your mobile device to access your account, place holds, and renew your checkouts. On their website, SWAN has some tips on how to add a bookmark to the catalog on your iPhone or Android device.

If you need help with the catalog, accessing your account, or anything else, please give us a call at 708-867-7828 or drop in for assistance.

We are sorry for this inconvenience.
